Mr Right
Baby let me move ya
Let the love begin to flow
Let make you crazy
Let me satisfy your soul
You might be what I'm looking for
But how am I to know?
If you don't wanna be with a man like me
Then baby just let me know
Baby let me groove ya
In a place you've never known
C'mon c'mon get to it
Before our time is blown
I might be what you're looking for
In the middle of the night
If you've never had what you're looking for
Then call me Mr Right
I don't wanna be that man
Holding on to all he can
I don't wanna be that man
Baby let me soothe ya
When your feeling kinda low
Ain't no doubt what I'm all about
And baby you should know
If I'm not the man you're looking for
Then baby it's time to go
If I'm not the man you're looking for
Then baby you should blow
I don't wanna be that man
Holding on to all he can
I don't wanna be that man
I ain't gonna be that man
I ain't gonna be that man

My Sweet Girl
I've got a lover's apparatus
But no one knows it's status
Gonna take to the stratosphere
I've got an aching in the making
It's you that's got me breaking
And I can't tell if your faking here
My engines overheating
And I think it's worth repeating
Cuz I want it absolutely clear
The pressures getting higher
And love could start a fire
That's exactly what could happen dear
And I want to believe in you baby
My sweet girl
C'mon now my sweet girl
If I'm getting no affection
From any direction
North south east or west
You see we've got to make connections
To avoid these speculations
I've got to know you gave me your best
Cuz I don't want to do no crying
If I find that you've been lying
Nothing hurts more than love confessed
Alright now
And I want to believe in you baby
My sweet girl
C'mon now my sweet girl
And I want to believe in you baby
And I want to believe in you baby
My sweet girl
Come on Fatty play it!

Sell Out

Sell Out
Bright lights and movie stars
Big thighs and boobie bars
You're coming out for the camera
You're selling out to the media
And I don't know what's wrong with you
Something makes you cry
I know something's wrong with you
And you can't hide
Red carpet and black ties
Pink vomit and black eyes
And I don't know what's wrong with you
Something makes you cry
I know something's wrong with you
And you can't hide
Newspapers and magazines
Rubber gloves and Vaseline
Big black cars
Disco bars
Extended limousines
High octane gasoline
I've got to be seen in all the right places
I've got to wear all the right faces
Be together with all of the races
Have all the social graces
I love my car
Why don't you hop in?
Let me take you somewhere
Somewhere where no one knows me
Oh wait a minute.....That might be impossible
Because I'm a star
Can you dig it?
I can dig it!Why don't you get in anyway?
We'll figure out something to do
I'm not like other guys
That's right baby
Why don't you get in my car?

Dying in September
Do you remember back in 1942?
I think it was September
When I first laid eyes on you
The bombs will drop
They won't stop
Red army dead
And it's running through my head
So get funky now
Watch your step
Don't step on me
We march to the beat
In the infantry
So get funky now
The orders have been given
And the front lines advance
I'm tired of living
In this dirt war romance
The fires light
Light up the night
The blood runs red
And it's running through my head
So get funky now
Watch your step
Don't step on me
We march to the beat
In the infantry
So get funky now
Wait for me baby
And we will have a toast
To dying in September
And our lovely host
It's alright
I sleep with you tonight

Stuck Here Anyway
You tell me to be seated
And I tell you that I'm stuck here anyway
You tell me to be silent
And I tell you what I'm thinking anyway
Trying hard to see it from
Anywhere that makes you want to stay
Knowing that you're leaving
Doesn't make me wanna stop and walk away
And I will always be by your side
Even if you leave here today
Anyway
Tell me, if by leaving
How the night will bring your life a better day
It's hard enough to let you go
And crying doesn't help me break away
And I will always be by your side
Even if you leave here today
Anyway

Misfortune

Misfortune
I wait at the station
You said you'd be there
But the rain's hesitation
Brought the people who stare
Now I look to the sky
Yes your answer is clear
Clear for the moment
Then the clouds reappear
And tonight will be cold inside
Without you my dear
Sleep won't come easy
Maybe never I fear
Here is misfortune
And here I will stand
Silently tortured
The whips in your hand

Turn Around

Turnaround
Turnaround little girl
Don't leave your home unless I'm by your side
Don't be the one who leaves me cold outside
I see the way you always run and hide
Give me the chance to make you warm
Inside my small room
I play this sad tune
Waiting for June
To thaw out my gloom
Turnaround little girl
It seems so cold and I'm not even there
I see the frost that mingles with your
Hair is so gray
Just like this day
Take it all away
But come back to play
I see you on the edge of night
Ready to jump off........ya
I once thought you died
Your world to collide
With dark suicide
Thank God You lied
You lied
You lied

Plastic Crown

Plastic Crown
Is it true what they say?
It seems that maybe you lost your way
You were a bright shinning star
But you flew out too far
Now you feel all alone
You might not make it on your own
I know you had to do What you had to do
I know you had to try
But you could not fly
Was it worth all those tears?
Did they help you kill your fears?
Or did you let yourself down
When you broke your plastic crown?
But you can't throw it away
Because you might wear it again someday
Now the walls close in on you
Your soul has nothing better to do
Than to think of all the bad you've done
And the times you had to run
Those same eyes that sold your lie
Will never let you cry
The stars align
The moon is bright
There is no end to me tonight
Once in space there is no return flight

The Answer Isn't Blowing in the Wind
Listen to the blowing end
Soothing but it's not your friend
You say you can hear it in a simple song
The spirits will move you
And it won't take long
The nightmare that will never end
Time to begin again
Why are you frightened when you walk in the night
Step out of your darkness
And into the light
The answer my friend
Isn't blowing in the wind
Isn't blowing in the wind
I pray
Say that you can't defend
Afraid that you might offend
But you can't be happy
way up high on that shelf
Tell me who will you turn to
If not yourself?
The answer my friend
Isn't blowing in the wind
Isn't blowing in the wind
I pray
The answer my friend
Isn't blowing in the wind

Confidential Lover
Wake me up at a quarter to nine
Get me outta bed
A hard days night but I'm doing fine
This cat's already fed
I change into my cover
I can't be seen if I do it right
I've got a confidential lover
And she seems really outta sight
Revving it up in the parking lot
You know we start it slow
The backseat baby is what I like
Come on It's time to go
I change into my cover
I've got the means to do it right
I've got a confidential lover
And I was seen with her last night
She's gotta smooth way about her
She's got it up in the trunk
My confidential lover feels right
She's gotta smooth way about her
She's got it up in the trunk
My confidential lover feels right
On the road headed to my trip
Sunglasses on the side
21 and I'm starting to slip
Double down and let it ride
I change into my cover
And I believe cuz it feels so right
And my confidential lover calls the read
Cuz she's got it spade tight

Carry Me Up
Carry me up when I'm dying
Carry me up the hill
Lay me down in the midnight hour
I'll meet you at the top of the hill
Tell my sister that I went flying
Tell my mama the same
Tell my girl not to be broken hearted
When she calls out my name
I'm coming home tonight
I need a sweet angel
To take me home tonight
I don't need no hole six feet deep
I don't need no fancy clothes
All I need is a banjo player
And an angel who knows
I'm coming home tonight
I need a sweet angel
To take me home tonight
Carry me up when I'm dying
Carry me up the hill
Lay me down in the midnight hour
I'll meet you at the top of the hill

Mud Casino
Rolling in slow and I douse the lights
Nobody's gonna see me cuz I'm outta sight
The sign says welcome but it ain't right
This ain't the kinda place to be alone at night
The Mud Casino is where it's at
The wine is cheap and the beer is flat
They've got willing and able and the mamas phat
They've got it made to order if you don't like that
Put your money down it ain't no thang
Taping on the table cuz you got it bang bang
The lights are low but you can see
The cards in your hand equal 23
The Mud Casino is where it's at
The wine is cheap and the beer is flat
They've got willing and able and the mamas phat
They've got it made to order if you roll like that
You've got to admit it's a funky little shack
The mood is lazy and the grove is whack
It's not so easy when you're on the short stack
But my mojos working on another Black Jack
The Mud Casino is where it's at
The wine is cheap and the beer is flat
They've got willing and able and the mamas phat
They've got it made to order if you don't like that

40 Below (2002)
Dawn gives a break to the struggling skies
But the pain in my head always blackens my eyes
Hold me nearer, hold me nearer
My fingers are stiff and my grip is too tight
Awake in my sleep when I dream in the night
Hold me nearer, hold me nearer
40 below as my memory fades
My conscious will crack as my guilt cascades
Down the mirror, down the mirror
I shovel the dirt of a lingering doubt
Got to pull myself up got to dig my way out
Of the mirror, of the mirror
Hey, wash me with water
Fresh from the sea of love
Wash me with water
Hey, I'm back from the slaughter
I swam through the sea of love
Wash me with water
Enslaved in the grasp of a faraway life
Bleeding from wounds from a faraway knife
Hold me nearer, hold me nearer
The price on my head can't be haggled away
Indebted to me and someday I'll pay
Hold me nearer, hold me nearer
See me looking at myself
I don't see nobody else
Maybe I can hide myself
Put me back onto my shelf
Hey, wash me with water
Fresh from the sea of love
Wash me with water
Hey, I'm back from the slaughter
I swam through the sea of love
Wash me with water

454
Baby come to me
Help me see all the things your questioning
I'll help you stand
And I'll be there when you need some conditioning
Now here we go
Down the center lane we are hustling
I said we're hustling
In my car 454
I said we're muscling,
I said we're muscling
Be my angel will you
Be my angel will you
Be my angel will you
Call my name from afar
And now I'm listening
Move to the left
You know I like it best with some positioning
I said transitioning
Be my angel will you
Be my angel will you
Be my angel will you

Like a Child

Like a Child
Feeling like you ought to be in another place
It's eating at the smile you wear upon your face
Believing that you might have changed somewhere down the line
And it makes you wander like a child
Seeing what you might have seen with a 2nd look
And reading what you might have read in another book
But you can't be what somebody else wants you to be
And it makes you wander like a child
Pretending that the road you're on might come up real
And dreaming that you're not asleep behind the wheel
But you can't dream unless somebody else rocks you to sleep
And it makes you wander like a child

Shape Shift
In your wildest thoughts
You find the molding rot
And if dreams are real
Horror has appeal
You can be anything
Shape shift you lizard king
Slip into the cold
When you leave the fold
Sights that turn your skin
But you look again
You let them take you down
Way down underground
Into the dreams of a child
Where the creeps run wild
They take you to the depths of a dreams illusion
Make you lie down in your own confusion
They lead you down the path, to the wrong conclusion
Take your life away, with their doomed solution

Asleep At Dawn
Waiting for a song
Leaves me feeling that I'm lost
And I dream and I wonder
But for how long?
Waiting for daylight
Makes the night seem oh so long
And I dream and I wonder
But for how long?
And everybody says just wait and see
But they can't see inside of me
And it would be easier it seems to me
If everybody else would leave me be
Is it true that you feel like I do?
Or is me that only thinks of you?
I'm waiting here
But for how long, how long?
Could it be we've been alone too long?
Should we be sleeping at the dawn?
The sun is warm, the sun is warm
And everybody says just wait and see
But they can't see inside of me
And it would be easier it seems to me
If everybody else would leave me be
Just leave me be

Rock & Roll Hero
I was born with a guitar and a rock & roll dream
I’ll be singing and playing till the day I die
I don’t have a voice that makes the young girls scream
Guess I’ll settle for now just making them cry
There’s not a Goddamn thing I’d rather do with my time
No other way for me to earn my dime
So give me a microphone and give me a verse
I’ll be strumming my guitar while I’m rolling in the hearse
Oh yea
Dreaming of what it’s like to be a hero
I know what’s it’s like to be a zero
I want to be your hero
Now I’ve been around the block a freaking time or two
And I feel quite sure what I want to do
But I can’t pay my bills with a smile and a wink
You say I’ll give it a spin and let you know what I think
Oh Yea
But I keep on playing anyway
Yes I keep on playing anyway.
Dreaming of what it’s like to be a hero
I know what’s it’s like to be a zero
I want to be your hero
But I keep on playing anyway
Yes I keep on playing anyway.

In a Hurry
Now everybody's in a hurry
But I don't ever have to worry
If my babies waiting there's no contemplating
I know that she's by my side
When everybody's in a hurry
If absence makes the heart grow fonder
They say out of sight the eyes will wander
But my babies waiting there's no hesitating
When she's not by my side
Well here she comes looky yonder
Well I found out in a hurry
It does nobody any good to sit a worry
If my babies waiting there's no contemplating
I know that she's by my side

No tears now
It's understood like rain

And I will
Yes I will always sing for you
I'm sorry
And if you need
A friend to help you through
Just call me
It's understood like rain
And I will
Yes I will always sing for you
And I will
Yes I will always sing for you

Without Your Love
Apart of me sees
The other side of you now
I wonder if I can
Satisfy you now
Cuz I won't go on without your touch
I can't be strong without your kiss
I won't be long for this world
Never leave me
Tell me that you'll stay
Please don't leave me
Tell me it's ok
Cuz I won't go on without your touch
I can't be strong without your kiss
I won't be long for this world
And I will love you
And I will love you
